New roundabout opens a day early

Published: November 20. 2012 4:00AM PST

A new traffic roundabout at the intersection of Northeast 18th Street and Empire Avenue was scheduled to open Monday, a day earlier than planned, according to Bend city spokesman Justin Finestone.

The new roundabout is the latest in a series of traffic improvements that were part of a voter-approved city bond program.

The 2011 measure authorized $30 million for seven separate projects.

Artwork in the new roundabouts will be installed separately by the organization Art in Public Places.
